In the city that was once known, a long time ago as “Toronto the Good”, perhaps not. But in light of a recent event it is something that should be considered. In the early hours of October 25, just prior to closing time, a dispute began in the Duke of York Tavern in Toronto’s now trendy Leslieville area. As is common in drinking establishments, the participants took their fight outside. At least one of the men involved pulled out an automatic pistol and fired off about 15 rounds. When it was over, four people had been injured and 23-year-old Bailey Zaveda, who had left the tavern before the bar before the fight started to have a cigarette, lay dead.
